Pay careful attention to the disclaimer that you'll find with any corrosion data. Corrosion rates are highly dependent on individual service. The are no universal rules for determining corrosion allowance because the rates vary so highly between various environments. There's a mandatory corrosion allowance in Section VIII for vessels containing air, but for nothing else.
